Hi, I seem to have problems redirecting pages when I view my site using my laptop, the only difference is that my laptop has Norton Firewall installed, can this interfere with the $HTTP_REFERER variable and if so is there a more reliable alternative? Many firewalls and proxies can filter out referer information so it's not likely to be reliable. Referer details can also be forged.
